An eye update

I cant even tell everyone how grateful I am for Tyler's good recovery.

Yesterday he had two friends over because ...well, we already had them scheduled to come and a distraction from his eye hurting was good. They did all these puzzles!
Here is a picture of Tyler's eye today.

Yesterday it was still extremely red. I was concerned it wasn't healing because it was so red. But this morning we could see white on his eye ball. The membrane that was peeled away is pretty much smoothed over. (as much as I can tell anyway) but the shovel hit the middle of his green and black part and scratched down into the white part.

A friend told me the tongue and the eye are the two fast healing parts on the body. I AM GLAD FOR IT!!! Here's to a good.... continued recovery!

What a sad little eye. It's good to know eyes heal up fast. I hope things just keep getting better.
